Coveted abum of the week prize this week goes to Verbose with his outstanding album called 'Wonder'. This has just arrived from Japan this week from the Moamoo/ Art Union label and it's a corker. This is quite different to his last album on Neo Ouija.... It's almost post rocky without the rock. ie post.... Beautiful textured electronic music with layer upon layer of loveliness. There's hidden treats to be found on repeated listens which reveal themselves later and smack you in the face for not noticing them earlier. I can hear bits of Yellow 6 in there in it's drifty lovelyness and there's also a heavy Mono influence I reckon as well. From start to end this is a fantastic listen. For fans of Maps & Diagrams, Yellow 6, Mono and other such pretty pretty. Muchly recommended!
